The Viper-41 is a sturdy, shiny 4X treble hook designed with long, straight points and a very aggressive bend. When designing the Viper-41, we focused specifically on surface lure fishing. Our goal was to create a lighter treble hook that would have a minimal impact on the lure’s swimming action, while maximizing its penetration and power. To reduce the hook’s overall weight and bring it closer to the lure, we shortened the welded section of the treble hook, thereby providing greater flexibility to the structure. The point is designed to maximize hook-up rates when fishing in surface waters or when targeting fish that suck in the lure, while the aggressive bend ensures the hook won’t come loose when the fish thrashes and leaps out of the water. The Viper-41 features a rust-resistant coating to withstand harsh saltwater environments and is available in a wide range of sizes (from 6 to 6/0) to suit a wide variety of lures, from small wobblers to large SW stickbaits and poppers.
